英文摘要 | The full-length cDNAs of two A-superfamily conotoxins, kappaA-SIVA and alpha-SII, were respectively cloned and sequenced from Conus striatus using 3' RACE and 5' RACE. The cDNA of kappaA-SIVA encodes a precursor of 68 residues, including a signal peptide of 21 residues, a pro-peptide of 17 residues, and a mature peptide of 30 residues with an additional residue Gly which is prerequisite for the amidation of the preceding C-terminal Cys. The cDNA-deduced sequence of alpha-SII is composed of a signal peptide of 21 residues, a pro-peptide of 29 residues, a mature peptide of 19 residues and three additional residues Arg-Thr-Ile at the C-terminus. This tripeptide might be cleaved off by proteolytic processing. Although these two conotoxins belong to different families and target voltage-gated potassium channel and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, respectively, they share the same signal sequence, and both are processed at the common signal site -X-Arg- immediately before the mature peptide sequences. The length of 3' untranslational region of a-conotoxin SII was extraordinarily large about 10 times longer than that of kappaA-SIVA with 770 and 75 bp, respectively. The elucidated cDNAs of these two toxins will facilitate a better understanding of the process of their post-translational modifications. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
